The new parliament isn't seen as demanding changes to MiCA in the immediate future, though it has the power to ask the European Commission for a report on whether changes are needed.

The election for members of the European Parliament starts today, with results expected on June 9. The more than 700 MEPs, though they cannot initiate legislation and the final decision on adopting a law lies with the Council of the EU.
